GOV. GRAY AND THE INSANE HOSPITAL.

Governor Gray is sly coon. We believe
no one of his most ardent friends and admir-
ers will doubt that fact. Indeed, they depend
upon that quality of the Governor for much
they hope for in the not distant future. It
will not be forgotten that the Governor con-
cluded that the best interests of the Insane
Hospital demanded a change of trustees and
management, and so, proceeding upon the
theory that the terms of DR.. Harrison ead
Mr.. Gapen had expired, he emphasized his
opinion by declining to reappoint them, but
named Mr. Joseph Carson and Mr.. Joseph
F'lack as their successors. These appoint
ments were brought to the attention of the
the following letter.
JUNE A. 1887.
"Dr. William B. Fletcher. Supt. Insane Hospital,
Indianapolis, Ind:
'Dear Sir-The Governor directs me to in
form you that he has appointed Joseph L.
Carson, of Falkland, Shelby county, presi-
dent of the three boards, to succeed Dr.
Thomas Ell. Harrison. whose term has expired

having taken the necessary oath of Office. and
fled proper bond as provided by law. He is
therefore duly authorized to act as president

is known that Mr.. Joseph Carson, and prob
ably Mr. Flaciz, were ready to assume their
Offices, and were prepared to do SO at once,
and if they had been recognized and supported
as they should have been, the infamous
Sullivan-Coy Harrison gang influence would
have been removed from our chief benevolent
institution. But somehow or other the
whole movement of the Governor ''fuked."
Mr.. Carson and Mr.. Flack were left in the
attitude of holding the bag, while the ''ring"
continued to fatten and 30 batten upon the
spoils of Office. How did this come about
Why this sudden and unexplained collapsed
Perhaps little inside history may throw a
side light upon the performance.
The next day after Governor Gray had sent
the letters to Doctor Fletcher announcing the
new appointments, the Governor telephoned
the Doctor and asked him to come to the
Governors Office, and to bring with him these
two letters. The Doctor went. Governor
Gray asked if he had the letters, and Doctor
Fletcher answered that he had The Governor
said, "Let me see them" Doctor Fletcher
handed them to him across the table, when
Governor Gray put them into his own drawer.
Doctor Fletcher asked, "Why do you keep
themR I have acted on those letters" Gov
ernor Gray answered that perhaps there was q
mistake in the phraseology of the letters;
that it might be considered that the language
was mandatory, whereas it was matter to be
settled by the court, and that he did rot
know anything more about it, except that he
had done what he could.
Governor Gray kept the letters. What
influences were brought to bear upon him to
effect this change of mind we, of course,
cannot certainly determine, and they must
remain matter of inference. But the
Governor is a sly coon.
